GestureStorm™ is Cybernet Systems' family of products that allow TV meteorologists to
control their on-air weather displays through purposeful gestures. For example,
by using a circular hand motion around a city, a meteorologist can “tell” the
computer to zoom in on a specific suburb for a more detailed look, or move to an
entirely new map with a hand movement to the right. This provides for more
spontaneity and reduces both errors and the time required to prepare severe weather
information for broadcast.

The GestureStorm™ management system enables the
meteorologist to use hand gestures and body movements to control the computerized
visual effects. Use of this system allows the meteorologist to reduce his
or her preparation time significantly. Instead of scripting an on-air report
where the timing of computerized maps is memorized, a weathercaster can now
directly display the weather picture in real time as it is happening. This
provides a substantial competitive edge in illustrating weather patterns or
tracking severe late breaking storms.

Cybernet’s GestureStorm™ is designed specifically for controlling Baron Services
FasTrac&reg and VIPIR&reg software programs. The GestureStorm™ system leverages
Cybernet’s patented technology in vision tracking and gesture recognition. It allows
the operator to control Baron Service's software through a combination of hand motions in
front of a green or blue screen and button clicks on a wireless remote.

During severe weather, it's important to get weather information
on air as quickly as possible. By using GestureStorm™, the meteorologists can
eliminate the time formerly required to memorize when and where weather and Doppler
radar maps will appear on the monitor. With GestureStorm™, the meteorologist
can now control the pace of the visuals and even incorporate spontaneous close-ups
with simple hand movements that seem natural to the viewing public.
